It's now the middle of January, and I'm not even close to being halfway through my January goals. Several things have prevented me from sewing for days at a time - not what I expected to happen. I'm not going to stress about it, however - after all, the goals were just to give me something to shoot for. Anything I don't complete will just be moved to February.Tonight I finished the applique on the last tree of this little wall hanging and then stitched on the borders. This is one of the Jan Patek kits that I purchased earlier this month. I'm very happy with how it turned out. I will hand quilt it - possibly in big stitch - in the next month or two. Hopefully sooner. I'm so happy to cross off another of January's goals!************Gratitudes:1. A three day weekend for Fred2. Crisp cold, clear winter days3. Several new cookbooks with tasty looking light recipes4. Meeting a friend for coffee

I just found your blog and love it. The tutorials are great. Since I'm doing a piece this week on my blog about getting organized and what to do with those scraps, I hope you don't mind that I'm going to ad a link to your blog. I'm sure my readers would love all your helpful news and hints. Thanks so much for this lovely blog.
